DoD JPC8/CRMRP Regenerative Medicine Focused Research Award (AFIRM III)

archived

The JPC-8/CRMRP RMFRA mechanism is intended to optimize research supporting the development of technical capabilities and solutions through collaborative partnerships and synergistic projects that inform and build on each other to accelerate regenerative medicine solutions and technical capabilities that repair, reconstruct, or regenerate tissue lost or damaged due to traumatic injury. The goal of the focused research to be funded under this award mechanism is to position the most promising solutions and technical capabilities (i.e., material or knowledge products) for advanced development and ultimately for transition to medical use and/or commercialization. Therefore, products resulting from the proposed focused research must have the potential for commercialization or adoption by clinicians as surgical and/or therapeutic options. Given the complex nature of peripheral nerve and skeletal muscle regeneration, it is anticipated that the most effective solutions will involve a multifaceted approach spanning both Focus Areas and several Areas of Encouragement.
